Ethyl Acetate → tert-butyl 1-(6-tosyl-6H-imidazo[1,5-a]pyrrolo[2,3-e]pyrazin-1-yl)pyrrolidin-3-ylcarbamate

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of tert-butyl 1-((5-tosyl-5H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyrazin-2-yl)methylcarbamothioyl)-pyrrolidin-3-ylcarbamate (0.54 g, 1.0 mmol, Preparation #J.1) in THF (15 mL) was added DIEA (0.444 mL, 2.54 mmol) followed by mercury (II) trifluoroacetate (0.478 g, 1.12 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for about 2 h and then saturated aqueous NaHCO3 (30 mL) and EtOAc (30 mL) were added. The organic layer was separated, dried over anhydrous Na2SO4, filtered, and concd in vacuo. The crude material was purified by chromatography on silica gel (40 g) eluting with 10-40% EtOAc in DCM to provide tert-butyl 1-(6-tosyl-6H-imidazo[1,5-a]pyrrolo[2,3-e]pyrazin-1-yl)pyrrolidin-3-ylcarbamate (0.411 g, 81%) as a yellow glass: LC/MS (Table 1, Method a) Rt=2.50 min; MS m/z: 497 (M+H)+.
